lfi breC - Revolution in Concrete

fi breC is a glassfi bre reinforced concrete material that unites the advantages of both glassfi bres and concrete. Behind the develop-ment of fi breC lies the vision of creating a light and stable concrete cladding panel that withstands the effects of weather and environ-mental conditions, while combining durability and valuable design.

Glassfi bre reinforced concrete: slender and strongConcrete is made from natural materials and has been used by peo-ple for many years. The fi rst experiments with glassfi bre reinforced concrete were made more than three decades ago. Wolfgang Rieder took stock of the results of these experiments and pushed on with the development of the material. Using top-class technology, the Rieder group made glassfi bre reinforced concrete suitable for new areas of application. The characteristics of fi breC, its quality, wide range of design options and durability offer new, original and cutting-edge ways of using concrete that were unimaginable just a short time ago.

Glassfi bre reinforced concrete as a building materialThe classic material concrete exhibits good compressive strength, but is also brittle and has a low tensile strength. This disadvantage is overcome with the production of a composite material consist-ing of concrete and a tension-resistant layer. Glassfi bre reinforced concrete is made from cement-bonded fi ne concrete reinforced with alkali-resistant glassfi bres. Unlike steel fi bres, glassfi bres provide a distinct advantage in that they do not require anti-corrosion treat-

ment. A concrete cover for concrete components with metallic rein-forcements is no longer required. This means concrete elements can be thin, slender and light. The use of mineral raw materials, natural stone components and glassfi bre reinforcements guarantees quality that meets the highest requirements. The wide range of applications for fi breC nurtures the joy of creative experimentation.

A safe material90% of fi breC glassfi bre reinforced concrete consists of sand and cement; the remaining 10% is made of glassfi bres, pigments and concrete additives. This makes the panels robust and extremely durable. fi breC withstands enormous pressure with a minimum thickness and extremely large panel size. The material guarantees absolute safety thanks to its excellent thermal values, offering tem-perature stability of up to 350° C. fi breC glassfi bre reinforced con-crete is not fl ammable.

lProduct Description fi breC

fi breC - a revolutionary material

Absolute fi re protection – without any special coatingThe excellent thermal values (fi re protection classifi cation A1 as per DIN - incombustible - and temperature stability up to 350° C) make fi breC a particularly robust material that requires no additional treatments or chemical coatings for fi re protection.

Performance – hail-proof & weather-resistant fi breC is non-combustible, can withstand heavy loads and is durable. The glassfi bre reinforced concrete panels have high mechanical stability, are dimensionally stable, weather-proof and thus hail-proof.

Individual look Extraordinary design variants (colours, surfaces, print, perforation, sand-blasting, relief, shapes) meet the creative require-ments of modern architecture. fi breC means Designers and Planners can work with no limits.

Authentic: concrete – nothing more and nothing less fi breC is glassfi bre reinforced concrete material. The glassfi bre reinforcement and the use of mineral raw materials give fi breC the highest quality – while at the same time remaining an authentic material.

Industrial Manufacture The concept of “industrial manufacture“ means that apparent opposites such as batch production of manufacturing with the industrial specifi cations of our time, and producing with ever greater economic effi ciency, can be combined. This unique combination guarantees fl exibility and spontaneity in the production of fi breC.

Benefi ts of a ventilated cladding systemThe ventilated rainscreen cladding system creates balanced room air conditions, protects against heavy rain and offers both condensation and sound insulation. Alongside the structural-physical advantages, rainscreen cladding also features economic benefi ts: controllable manufacturing costs, weather-resistant assembly, long life and no maintenance.

Ductility Bending, shaping and turning of elements in one piece open up new possibilities for design with concrete. Machined parts are tailor made as a single piece without mitre cuts and still manufactured economically.

Long-term stability The technical characteristics of fi breC remain unchanged over an expected lifetime of over 50 years. The natural signs of life and the gradual infl uence to the appearance caused by the environment do not affect either the mechanical load capacity or the safety of the panels.

Winner of many awards Various international awards and certifi cations from the MIPIM AR Future Project Award in Cannes in France through the Form & Function Award in Australia to the nomination for the design prize of the Federal Republic of Germany are testimony to the quality and innovation of fi breC.

fi breC Sustainability

Holistic approachOur principle of sustainability and our responsibility towards the environment are backed by the international environmental man-agement certifi cate ISO 14001. We set ourselves high standards in the protection of the environment and use innovative technologies with ecological responsibility. fi breC, unlike most of the products available on the market, is based on mineral base materials and it is fully recyclable. Profi tability and sustainability are promoted by the economical use of resources.

The variety and effi ciency achieved with fi breC facilitate high-qual-ity, visually attractive, lasting and cost-effective constructions. This shows how the authentic material fi breC meets the current trend for natural, environmentally-friendly and sustainable, value for money materials, creating an aesthetic and modern effect.

Food safe und no danger to healthThe well-tried use of fi breC panels in professional bread and pizza ovens and the associated strict tests and food and certifi cates give the ecological material fi breC an excellent health certifi cate. Glass-fi bre reinforced concrete is ecologically sound and thus completely safe from a health point of view. The fi breC baking surface has all the tests and certifi cates relating to food safety and security.

lA Look at the Green Facts

fibreC close to nature

100 % recyclable fibreC is based on mineral base materials and is thus fully recyclable. Profitability and sustainability are promoted by the economical use of resources.

ISO 14001 We set ourselves high standards in environmental protection. Environmental management at Rieder is certified according DIN EN ISO 14001:2009.

IBO Certification The production of fibreC has 49% less greenhouse potential than fiber cement panels and aluminium sheeting. With its excellent Eco profile, fibreC consumes 78% less primary energy than high pressure laminate panels (Source: IBO product test 09/2007).

GreenSpec & Green building fibreC is part of the product list GreenSpec®. GreenSpec offers useful information on energy-saving construction and lists products that meet strict biological and ecological criteria for buildings..

Carbon Footprint

The primary energy requirement for the production process of fibreC glassfibre reinforced concrete is only 202 MJ/m² (PeI). The manufacture causes 14.0 kg CO2eq/m² greenhouse potential and 0.04 kgSO2eq/m² acidification potential (AP).

VOC-free & food safe

fibreC is free of pollutant emissions and thus absolutely safe for human health. Declaration of no-objection/ Food safety No. 28766 U 09.

VisionThe nature and the eco-friendliness of fibreC are of particular concern to us. We work round the clock to become even better and more eco-friendly despite the excellent life cycle assessment.

Objective sustainability The methodology of the life cycle assessment was developed to achieve an objective evaluation. It is regulated in the Norm DIN EN ISO 14040 and has been used for this study. As a result, the ecologi-cal choice of building materials can be based on scientific findings.

All material and energy contributions of the individual processes of manufacture and use of a cladding panel have been balanced in the process. These include the production of resources, the energy supply, the manufacture of the products required, the provision of the infrastructure, transport services and the use and disposal of the particular products. As part of the impact assessment, the emissions in air, water and soil were calculated and summarised them using equivalence factors into the following 3 impact catego-ries (OI3 Index):

• Primary energy content not renewable (PeI ne) • Global warming (GwP) • Acidification (AP)

Primary energy content not renewable (PeI ne) The ”Primary energy content not renewable” is calculated from the upper calorific value of all those non-renewable energy resources, used in the manufacturing chain of the product.

Global warming (GwP) The greenhouse potential GWP (Global Warming Potential) describes the contribution of a substance to the green house effect relative to the contribution of a similar amount of carbon dioxide.

Acidification (AP) Acidification is caused mainly by the interaction of nitrogen oxide- (NOx) and Sulphur dioxide gases (SO2) with other components in the air. The Acidification Potential (AP) is a measure of the tendency of a component to become acidified.

IBO Test certificate for ecologically recommendable product Comparisons show that the production of fibreC, unlike other clad-ding materials, is completed in a very ecologically sound manner. The manufacture of fibreC has 49% less greenhouse potential than in fiber cement panels and aluminium sheeting. With its excellent eco profile, fibreC consumes 78% less primary energy than high pressure laminates.

The IBO test certificate is regarded as a recognised and independ-ent test seal, issued only to selected products that meet strict environmentally compatible and ecological criteria. It facilitates transparency and represents a reliable aid to decision-making for ecologically recommendable products. (Source: IBO Product test 06/2009).

Colours & Surfaces

10 standard colours - 3 surfaces fi breC offers a wide range of design options for facades. The selec-tion of ten different colours in each of three surfaces offers a wide range of designs to meet individual expectations. Special colours (RAL - equivalent) can also be produced on request. The three sur-face fi nishes (sand blasted, fi nely sandblasted or brushed) open up a wide spectrum of optical and tactile effects. The combination of different surfaces in the same colour creates a particularly vivid design.

Natural colours fi breC has a distinct advantage over other colour-treated materials - namely the consistent colouring of the whole panel. The mixture of the desired colour is created before the actual production proc-ess. The colour becomes part of the product by being added in the blending of the raw materials. Other products are in some cases only superfi cially treated and coloured, resulting in signifi cant quality differences.

fi breC is coloured by ferric oxide colours and natural additions and subsequently brushed or sandblasted. The natural, authentic col-ours of fi breC fi t well in landscapes and blend with nature and the environment.

Colour fastness and UV stability Liquid colours for colouring cement-bonded building materials comply with the DIN EN 12878. The pigments used in the liquid col-ours are light-, UV- and weather-resistant and not soluble in water, alkalis or diluted acids. Factors such as natural fl uctuations in raw materials used, panel and air moisture, dirt and light sources must be taken into consideration. The appearance of the panels may even become brighter due to dehydration. Changes caused by age, weather or environment specifi c infl uences are natural processes that cannot be infl uenced from a production point of view and are therefore not considered material defects. The technical charac-teristics of the panel are not affected by these.

Colour differences Glassfi bre reinforced concrete is a natural material. The character-istics of the raw materials such as the colour of cement can lead to variations in colour within a panel, between individual panels or between different production batches. To avoid any discrepancies, we recommend ordering the total amount instead of part orders, and ordering spare panels with the fi rst delivery.

Due to technical reasons printed colours may differ from the origi-nal shade.

Characteristics of fi breC

Vivid signs of a natural building material Concrete is a natural product and Rieder sees it as such, with all its vital signs and characteristics. Living surfaces with the interplay of colour shades and light cloud effects, rather than dead and clini-cal surfaces are characteristic of fi breC. Even in the colouring of the concrete matrix, the focus is placed on meeting the ecological requirements of modern design. This is why the production involves natural raw materials to ensure the authenticity of all products. The demand for low porosity, homogeneous colour and strictly uniform smooth surfaces is not part of our sustainable philosophy. We consciously avoid chemical treatment and artifi cial materials to preserve the authenticity of the „green“ product fi breC. Colour and texture variations are a feature of our natural product.

Concrete lives As the panels are not chemically treated or painted, small defects, dents, tension lines, effl orescences or fl aws and textures may be visible (Data sheet exposed concrete 02/2004 [Publ.:BDZ/DBV]).

When cement sets, it separates calcium hydroxide. This dissolves in water and can migrate to the concrete surface. When the water evaporates, the calcium hydroxide is returned to the surface and is converted to calcium carbonate (lime). If this natural process is intensifi ed by unfavourable conditions, it leads to deposition of calcium carbonate, which is visible as a white effl orescence. Effl o-rescences are a natural feature of all cement-bonded composite materials.

Part of nature - resistant & stable fi breC is not an artifi cially created material that exists cut off from the natural cycle of the environment. As adaptable and extraordi-nary the concrete skin is, it is just as authentic. fi breC is part of a natural cycle. Infl uencing variables for possible colour changes are temperature variations and differences in air humidity.

Concrete is hygroscopic. It absorbs moisture and gives it off again. The large format of the panels means that moist spots may dry at different speeds. Visible colour changes may occur between indi-vidual panels and within a panel. The visible characteristics of con-rete are intensifi ed on matt panel surfaces.

A typical feature of highly-compressed, high-quality concrete sur-faces is so-called blue- and green discoloration, which can occur in particular in bright colours or fresh panels. They can be attributed to a natural hardening and drying process of organic substances. Tests and experiences have shown that this blue colouring on the cladding may disappear under the infl uence of UV and light. This occurs based on the climatic and environmental infl uences. Heat, insolation and dryness can in particular accelerate the process.

Hydrophobising As a basic protection against environmental infl uences, fi breC comes with a transparent hydrophobic impregnation. The opaque hydrophobising emphasises the naturalness of the material. The gloss level of the hydrophobic impregnation has a visual infl uence on the surface appearance. The hydrophobising is permeable and therefore breathable. If the cladding panel is applied vertically, it provides solid basic protection against weathering, dust and dirt but not against scratching, pressurised liquids, oil, acids, strong alkaline substances, etc. The hydrophobising may be reapplied to achieve increased protection of the panels and to prevent extreme environmental conditions and wear and tear through intensive cleaning.

In addition to the basic protection of the hydrophobising, the glass-fi bre reinforced concrete panel can be provided with a polyurethane protection. Depending on the thickness of this layer, which wears over time with the cleaning of the panels, protection against graf-fi ti or other effects of dirt may be provided. The natural look and surface feel of glassfi bre reinforced concrete is impaired by this coating.

Note:The surface characteristics described apply to the visible side of the cladding panel. fi breC sample panels can never refl ect all of the above characteristics. In large-scale cladding applications, optical phenomena occur that cannot be detected on small sample panels.

Visual changes like micro-cracks do not affect the technical char-acteristics of fi breC. The static functions and the long-term stabil-ity are not affected.

Unlimited design possibilitiesIn the design of cladding, there are hardly no limits for planners and architects with fi breC. The selection of ten different colours in each of three surface forms the basis. In line with current trends and developments, fi breC offers a range of additional procedures for the creation of individual building shells.

fi breC offers a wide range of possibilities for printing the surface of the panel, irradiating designs, cutting out ornaments or lettering or incorporating a relief-like surface (e.g. a wood structure).

However what primarily characterises the material fi breC are the variations in the representation of shapes. With a specially devel-oped method, it is possible, to make glassfi bre reinforced concrete fl ow around corners, or produce formed elements. Two-dimen-sional standard formed elements can be produced in real time. We would be delighted to meet you in person to tell you about triaxial curved elements.

· Perforation: Individual shapes or letters can be cut out of the panel using a water jet.

· Sandblasting: Using specially made jet fi lms, patterns, charac-ters or logos can be applied permanently to the panel surface

· Digital or Screen printing: fi breC panels can be printed using either digital or screen printing. Printing images, photographs, designs and texts are suitable for both outside and inside.

· Relief: Using a special technique, it is possible to produce relief-like rises on the fi breC panel.

· Formed elements: fi breC can be produced as U-shapes, arches, corners or other geometric shapes.

· Three-dimensional special shapes: Basically everything is possible. We have special projects where we work on solutions to cater for your individual requirements like special shapes or 2D and 3D formed elements.

One important feature of the ventilated rainscreen cladding system (VRC) is the structural separation of both the components insulation and cladding. The space created regulates the heat balance in the

building and the characteristic structure of the VRC leads to a range of structural-physical and economic benefits.

Ventilated Rainscreen Cladding

The facade cladding with fibreC is designed as a ventilated rain-screen cladding as per EN 18516. There must be appropriate air circulation behind the cladding to ensure the complete system has sufficient ventilation and the ventilation distance is based on the permitted standard.

The panels must be fitted on a rigid, stable and level substructure that has been statically dimensioned. There must be no load forces transferred onto the panels. All the regulations of the substructure manufacturers must be followed.

Load-bearing masonry The stability of the construction must be demonstrated by a static analysis.

Substructure The substructure must be designed in metal (wall angle bracket). The aluminium or steel substructure is a flexible system that meets the requirements of building regulations for non-combustible clad-ding. Any thickness of heat insulation can be used with this sub-structure. It also evens out any building tolerances without any difficulty.

Basically, the fibreC cladding panels (in the case of small-area clad-ding) can be fitted on a wood substructure. This application must be checked in individual cases and statically calculated.

Decoupling The substructure must be decoupled as per EN 18516.

Heat insulation Form-stable, hydrophobised mineral fibre cladding insulation boards of flammability class A must be used. The panel joints must be designed as a tight press joint. The insulation must be fitted so stable that the panels cannot come off and so that the ventilation cross section does not close.

Ventilation The free vertical ventilation cross section between the cladding panel and the heat insulation must be at least 200 cm²/m.

Wind loading The wind loading must be factored into the fixing of the fastening and the distances of the subconstruction. In the load case wind suction, a difference must be made between the normal- and edge area of the cladding.

Concealed fastening with undercut anchor As an alternative to the visible fastening, fi breC can be mechani-cally fastened concealed using undercut anchors.

Visible fastening with rivets Fastening with rivets means fi breC can be fi tted quickly and per-manently. The panels are fastened with fl oating- and fi xed points to cancel out thermal length variations in the materials used.

Concealed fastening with adhesive fi breC glassfi bre reinforced concrete panels can also be fastened with adhesive with the help of a specifi c substructure.

Types of Fastening

Alongside individual form- and colour freedom in the fi breC pan-els, visible or concealed fi xings can achieve additional aesthetic

effects. Depending on the construction project, fi bre can basically be fi tted as follows:

NoteThe information listed on the following pages is not part of the sales performance of Rieder. Rieder sells fi breC cladding panels and explicitly neither fastening agents nor substruc-tures. Any liability for the substructure is excluded. The instructions given by the manufac-turer of the substructure must be included in the detailed planning of the substructure. The

possible types of fastening vary depending on the particular construction project and the particular manufacturer is responsible for the fastening systems. All visualisations in the brochure are schematic representations of the system and structural-physical require-ments and project details are not included in the data.

Panels with a thickness of 13 mm can be fitted invisible on the back with metal clips and special dowels. For this purpose, each panel has on the top row of clips adjusting screws and a fixed point fas-tening (screw or clip), with the result that it can be aligned and no

displacement occurs. The maximum construction height is 100 m. Additional heights must be checked with a special approval by the customer.

Details fastening with undercut anchor

Substructure Exclusively metal substructure.

Fastening With undercut anchors and clips suspended in horizontal alu-minium carrier profiles. Fasteners recommended in the system approval: Keil anchor (www.keil.eu) with the marking Hs=8.5 mm or equivalent.

The undercut anchor must be tightened with a torque of 2.00 – 4.00 Nm. Depending on the substructure used, there are suitable screws in different lengths. One must ensure that clips, anchors and screws belong to one system and match each other.

Preparation In the Rieder factory, the panels are both tailored and prepared for fitting with undercut anchors. The bore holes for the undercut anchors can be pre-drilled in the factory if required. Any fastening agents required like system anchors, screws and metal profiles are not supplied by Rieder.

JointJoints must be at least 8 mm wide. If the horizontal joints are designed with 20 mm, panels can be unhooked or hooked on at a later date (please follow the manufacturer’s instructions). Depend-ing on the substructure, a sponge rubber layer must be used between the clip and the panel. The length of the screw for the undercut anchor varies depending on the system.

The panels can be fastened with rivets on a metal substructure. The substructure will consist preferably of vertical profiles, fitted using wall bracket holders to the wall. The substructure must be adjust-

able to balance out any building tolerances and facilitate smooth fitting.

Substructure Exclusively metal substructure.

Fastening With rivets on vertical aluminium support profiles. Recommended rivets with special colours matching fibreC surfaces are avail-able from different fastener manufacturers. Indicate the standard fibreC colour used and the manufacturer will give you a matching recommendation for the rivet colour.

Preparation Holes in the substructure must be drilled using a centre sleeve to ensure the bore hole is centrically aligned. The bore diameter for the substructure is 5.1 mm. Two sleeves must be used per panel and they must usually be arranged in the centre point of the panel. There might be country-specific variations depending on the respective approval. The sleeves fix the panels; they are described as a fixed point. The rivets must be tightened using a rivet template matching the rivets. The rivet template has a load-distributing effect and cre-ates a small clearance between rivet head and cladding board, with the result that movements in the cladding board can be absorbed.

Joint Joint width at least 8 mm.

Processing

Processing on site As a rule, the panels are already cut and delivered drilled to the site. If further processing is done on the building site, the following guidelines must be observed. Of course the team at Rieder is always

available if you have any questions. We can also arrange seminars for training on all assembly and handling guidelines. More informa-tion on this is available on page 74.

Processing

CuttingCutting stationary – Wet cutfibreC panels can be tailor-cut using a water jet. This is particularly suitable for complex cuts like curves and diagonal cuts. After the wet cut process, cleaning with clean water and subsequent drying are important. The panels must not be processed or piled under any circumstances when wet. Handling the panels improperly in the wet condition may lead to a loss of quality.

Cutting stationary – Dry cutThe fibreC panels can be cut with a circular saw bench and a dia-mond saw blade (e.g. Tyrolit or similar).

Cutting on the building site – Dry cutPrecise fitting cuts on site can be made with a circular hand saw with a guide rail (e.g. Festool plunge cut saw TS 55 EBQ-Plus-FS or similar). This saw facilitates cut-outs, diagonal cuts and mitre cuts.

Important:Dust from drilling and cutting must be removed quickly and thor-oughly, before it damages or dirties the surface of the panels.

DrillingThrough boreholeThrough boreholes are generally drilled with a diameter of 8 mm. For the bore, we recommend the drill from the Company Bosch „BlueGranite“ Ø 8 mm, l = 120 mm or similar. When drilling, you must ensure that the visible face of the panels is facing upwards. In through boreholes, a block of e.g. wood must be placed underneath to avoid the bottom ripping.

Undercut anchor boreAs per approval, undercut anchor bores must be done with the system of the Keil Company. An undercut anchor with the setting

depth 8.5 mm must be used. Undercut anchor drill machines may be purchased or hired from the Keil Company (www.keilwerkzeuge.com). Training by Keil is recommended. Guidelines for drilling must be observed.


BoresHoles in the substructure must be drilled using a centre sleeve to ensure the bore hole is centrically aligned. The bore diameter for the substructure is 5.1 mm. Two sleeves must be used per panel and they must usually be arranged in the centre point of the panel. The sleeves fix the panels; they are described as a fixed point.

Rivet templateThe rivets must be tightened using a rivet template matching the rivets. The rivet template has a load-distributing effect and creates a small clearance between rivet head and cladding board, with the result that movements in the cladding board can be absorbed.

Quality management for order processes The Rieder group not only places great value on sustainability and the quality of their products, but also the satisfaction of their cus-tomers. Processors are just as important a link here in the network as architects, engineers and developers. To provide the right prod-uct for each individual project, all general conditions should be clarified beforehand.

Clarity of orderAccurate documentation on agreements facilitates the smooth running of projects. Clarity of order exists as soon as all project-related measurements, informations and payments are provided.

The characteristics of fibreC described in the brochure help to avoid misunderstandings or false customer expectations. The fibreC Handling Instructions provide guidance on how to handle the high-quality glassfibre reinforced concrete panels during transport, storage and cleaning.

Planning a fibreC cladding for a building? Contact us for a non-committal appointment and a quotation. You can find a checklist for getting a quote in the download centre on our website. We can also send you the form by fax or e-mail.

Contact: [email protected] or +49 / (0)8031 / 90167-163

Step 1 I Checklist quotation We need the following information to give you a quote:

· Project name, project address · Name of the architect or the architect’s office · Product type fibreC panel (Exterior, Interior, Special, Öko Skin) · Application (e.g. cladding, internal wall, floor etc.) · Type of build (new build, renovation) · Type of project (public building, office block, school, private

house etc.) · Total m² fibreC panels · m² per cladding side (optional) · Colour(s) · Surface(s) · Planned type of fastening (rivets, adhesive, undercut) · Planned awarding of contract · Invoice address · Delivery address · Desired delivery date

Step 2 I Price suggestion / Quotation After you have provided all the data above, you will receive a quota-tion and an expected delivery date from us.

Step 3 I Placing of order After the order is placed, you will receive an exact delivery date. You will also receive the information as to by when we need the detailed data for the production of your panels.

Step 4 I Primary production To meet the delivery time given, the raw panels are produced before all cuts and special processing are announced and they harden for 28 days.

Step 5 I Announcement of sizes & cutting measures 6 weeks before dispatch we need the project-related measure-ments.

All measurements and details must be with us by the above men-tioned deadline.

· Cutting measures (dimensions between centre lines) in the form of an Excel table (Rieder order template)

· Special processing (bores, bore dimensions, diagonal cuts, mitre cuts etc.)

Note: If, despite the binding confirmation of the deadline for the submission for the cutting measurements and other data, you cannot meet the deadline, you will of course understand that the production schedule and thus the delivery time will be extended. This may lead to longer-term delays, because the entire produc-tion process is pre-planned over several weeks. Failure to comply with the deadline may lead to processing costs for the resulting rescheduling of productions being charged.

Step 6 I Updated order confirmation After notification of all cutting measurements and special process-ing, you will receive an updated order confirmation with final meas-urements.

Step 7 I Final production and packaging

Step 8 I Delivery (Incoterms 2010 FCA)We organise the delivery on the day of the provision of your panels. You get the information when the panels are going to be delivered. By request you can also organise the transport yourself. We pro-vide you with all the data needed. If the goods can not be collected within two weeks, storage costs may be charged.

fi breC Handling

Loading and UnloadingLoading Form-fi t, safe loading. A maximum of 2 pallets may be stacked on top of each other. Do not place larger pallets on smaller pallets. Do not stack any other goods on the pallets. For container transport see Datasheet Container.

Edge protection Transport safety is guaranteed only with stable edge protection. Number of lashing straps in compliance with legal regulations. Load safety must be guaranteed.

Proper unloading Unloading and transport exclusively with forklift/truck or crane. Pallet bending causes cracks or even break of panels. Avoid vibra-tion during manipulation of the pallets. Ensure to load bearing capacity distances.

Lift single pallets - do not stack or rest on the edge of the lower pal-let. The weight per pallet is usually between 1.5 to max. 2.0 tons. Drive slowly!

StorageStorage area At planning stage we recommend - especially for large projects - to provide a suitable storage space (dry and fl at) for the fi breC boards, e.g. underground parking, hall etc. When placing material on the ground, make sure it is level! Pallets must not be stacked one above the other at the site.

No leaning Avoid sagging/bending and swinging. Do not store panels on cor-ners or edges without appropriate protection (such as Styrofoam or Styrodur).

Protection against the elements The fi breC panels must be safely secured and well protected until just prior to installation. The panels may only be removed from the packaging immediately before assembly. Any pallets already open must be closed again and appropriate protection from moisture must be guaranteed. The fi breC packaging fi lm is no suffi cient pro-tection against any weather conditions.

Protection when stacking panels on top of each other Do not stack on top of each other without adequate protection between the individual panels. No glassfi bre reinforced concrete elements or pieces of wood must be stuck between the fi breC panels. To achieve suffi cient protection against damage from the panels rubbing together, a foam foil should be placed between each panel.

Proper and safe handling

Technical resources Appropriate technology for unloading, reloading, the transport and assembly are necessary. Use clean protective gloves!

Proper carrying / handling of the panels Manual transport with upright panel! Use protective gloves, wear industrial safety equipment. Caution heavy weight. Risk of injury! Avoid swinging and bending of the panel, causes cracks or even breakage. Handle narrow, long boards with special care! Do not place boards on edges or corners without appropriate protection (such as Styrofoam or Styrodur).

Carefully twist panels – do not pull Do not push or pull panels from the stack. Always twist. Panels must not rub against each other.

Cleaning

Cleaning of the panels before assembly Position the panels inclined for cleaning. Clean under running water with a scratch-free brush or micro-fibre cloth. After drying follow storage guidelines. There must not be any ponding water left on the panel.

Cleaning interval after installation Depending on the location of the work and stress on the cladding from dirt, we recommend cleaning the cladding at an interval of about 2 - 5 years by a specialist company. The recommended clean-ing intervals are approximate and a guide. Every cladding should be examined before cleaning, to decide on the need for cleaning.

Cleaning systems

For normal soiling, we recommend the cleaning system MC-Duro-prob N from the Company MC – Bauchemie www.mc-bauchemie.de or equivalent. For heavy soiling, the cleaning system MC-Duroprob B from the Company Firma MC – Bauchemie can be used.

Caution: Due to heavy dissolving activity, incorrect use can dam-age the hydrophobising. In principle, the processing instructions of the company, MC–Bauchemie for the processing of the cleaning systems must be observed. After the installation is complete, we recommend a thorough cleaning of the cladding with the cleaning system MC-Duroprob N.

No chemicals Do not use chemicals (except fibreC cleaner).

No high-pressure cleaners Do not use steam jets or high-pressure cleaners. Water jet with too high pressure leaves marks on the cladding.

fibreC shall not be liable for any improper cleaning or maintenance.

Repair Kit

For smaller incidences of damage to the fibreC panel, such as bro-ken-off areas at the edge, cases where material has split, or other flaws up to a size of 1 cm², we recommend the fibreC repair kit. The necessary steps for correcting the flaw in the best possible way are as follows:

Step 1 | FillerThe first step consists of filling in the damaged area. We recom-mend the following producers or systems for filler:

· ARDEX FIX Filling Paste · ARDEX FEATHER FINISH · BOTACEM M37

All three of the fillers indicated are suitable for repairing the fibreC panels. The materials can be ordered from the respective manufac-turer or at your building materials stockist. We draw your attention to the processing guidelines issued by the manufacturers; Rieder Faserbeton-Elemente GmbH is not liable for any guarantee claims in the case of improper use.

Step 2 | Coloured Water-Repellent AgentAfter repairing the flaw by using the filler and after observing the required drying period, the coloured-in water-repellent agent must be applied using a suitable brush, to cover up the colour tone of the filler. Rieder Faserbeton-Elemente GmbH offers a suitable coloured-in water-repellent agent for each fibreC standard colour.

The different surface structures - FE Ferro, FL Ferro Light and MA Matt - can be produced with the help of various aids. The smooth panel surface MA Matt is produced by the simple application of the water-repellent agent, using a brush, or a roller made of foam rub-ber. After it has been applied, the water-repellent agent must be lightly dabbed using a sponge, to produce the structure of the FE Ferro und FL Ferro Light surfaces.

During the application the following points must be borne in mind: · The area to be treated must be clean, dry and free of dust. · Separating agents, formwork oils or other fluids can lead to

adhesion problems. · Before and during the processing, the water-repellent agent

needs to be stirred around very frequently, in order to prevent the components from forming a sediment.

· The panel temperature and the surrounding temperature must be at least 10° C.

· The task of applying the water-repellent agent should be com-pleted in one operation; if it is applied in two or more operations, it can lead to a shiny effect on the water-repellent agent.

· The amount needed per m² equals ca. 130 g, the required den-sity equals ca. 1.1 kg/l.

· The tools used should be cleaned with warm water immediately after use.

· The filled-in water-repellent agent keeps for 6 months. · The filled-in water-repellent agent should be kept in a cool and

dry place, protected from frost.
